The kids love to watch DVD movies. Hubby and I are on the lookout for a new unit since ours seem to be on the brink of extinction due to abuse, misuse and old age.
Oh, did I mention that the remote control’s buttons do not correspond to the function it is supposed to do?
Bluray dvd players would be a good thing to get to replace said unit. Hubby wants a player with a DIV-X format for the encoded AVI files of movies and TV series.
I am sure our Kuya will be the happiest for there would be no need to call him when we need to pause the player or choose a chapter 😀

My eldest daughter’s project last year was to make a bag from a pair of denim pants.
Here is a part of her project with some dainty beads:
I featured a different bead in this photo for another photomeme.
My other entry for bag.

Last year’s tree was adorned with handmade decorations like little paper trees, photos and yes, paper stockings. Below is one of the many photos we have put up the tree:
These handmade decorations were tied with a silver cord.
Have a great weekend and I hope we don’t get tied down with a lot of stress and negative things 🙂

With Christmas 2009 just a few weeks away, it is no wonder malls are having possible gifts on display. Bazaars are happening left and right.
I do not want to dampen the joyous Christmas spirit but here in our country, at least the way I see it, Christmas will have a different meaning after all the things that happened to a lot of people and families.
Of course, husbands/male partners will still think of going to aisles that say “gifts for her” as would wives/female partners do. That is natural.
But for me who will be starting my Frugal Christmas year 2 for Christmas 2009, I hope to instill Christmas with less emphasis on the material things with my children.

- Moist white chiffon layered with real bits of cherry, white chocolate flakes and cream.
- Crowned with beautiful cream rosettes topped with long-stemmed maraschino cherries.

What more can you ask for? Nothing more I guess, and as I slowly savored bites from a slice earlier, I tried not to think about best diet pills yet. I can always go walking tomorrow.
